It's an 8 year old OS. I can't say I blame them for not wanting to handle that anymore, eventually it becomes too difficult to test and keep up with.

- NoahKAndrews 3y agoIt's not a matter of "not wanting to handle it", it's that 7.1.1 is the oldest Android version with an unexpired root certificate that Let's Encrypt can use (my language may be a little bit sloppy here).
- schoen 3y agoIf you want to be more precise, you could say "a root certificate that Let's Encrypt will be able to use to build an unexpired trust path after September 2024" (because of the fact that Android doesn't enforce expiration of roots, but does enforce expiration of certificates signed by them). https://letsencrypt.org/2023/07/10/cross-sign-expiration.html https://letsencrypt.org/2023/07/10/cross-sign-expiration.htm...
